Answer:

  37.5% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change is given by the formula ...

  pct change = ((new price) -(original price))/(original price) × 100%

  = (50 -80)/80 × 100%

  = -3/8 × 100% = -37.5%

The negative sign indicates a decrease.

The decrease in price is 37.5%.
